Ajman,
located a short distance
northeast of Sharjah’s
capital city, has a
beautiful 16-kilometre
stretch of white sand beach.
It is a small emirate in
terms of its physical size,
covering about 259 square
kilometers, which is
equivalent to 0.3 per cent
of the country’s total area,
excluding the islands.
The capital
city, Ajman, has an historic
fort at its center. This has
been recently renovated and
now houses a fascinating
museum. In addition to the
Ruler’s office,
various
companies, banks and
commercial centers, the
emirate is also blessed with
a natural harbor in which
the Port of Ajman is
situated.
Masfut is an
agricultural village located
in the mountains 110
kilometers to the southeast
of the city, while the
Manama area lies
approximately 60 kilometers
to the east.
